Hi from the Napa Valley! – I am so excited to be releasing my second wine in the
Palazzo Wine ~ Master Blend Series … the PALAZZO 2018 Chardonnay from Napa
Valley! After years and years of requests from friends, sommeliers, distributors,
and restaurants … I was able to find beautiful Chardonnay fruit from the Carneros
Appellation in Napa Valley!
The ‘cooler climate and clay soils’ of the Carneros Region, where the San Pablo Bay
meets the southern end of Napa Valley, offer ideal conditions for growing superior
Chardonnay grapes with rich, intense fruit flavors … balanced by fresh acidity.
My inaugural vintage ~ the PALAZZO 2018 Chardonnay is ‘beautiful on the palate’
with delicious layers of fresh apple, honeydew melon, lemon, apricot and pineapple
flavors! The nose offers ‘stunning aromatics’ of peach, fresh apple, lemon custard and
toasted brioche ... along with floral notes of tropical flowers! The finish is beautiful
and elegantly balanced! A combination of wonderful minerality, a gentle creamy
texture ... and pure, mouthwatering ‘Chablis-like’ acidity! A Superior Food Wine!
The PALAZZO 2018 Chardonnay is another great example of why the Napa Valley is
known world-wide for the amazing Chardonnays produced here! The wine is drink-
ing beautifully now, and will continue to develop additional depth & nuance in the
bottle over the next 5+ years!
Our goal at PALAZZO WINE is, and always will be, to produce beautiful wines of
outstanding quality, with distinction and class! Wines that are both ‘powerful and
elegant’ … and pair well with a broad range of foods!
À Votre Santé!Scott Palazzo
Best Chardonnay & Wine of the Year!
“A master blend indeed! Subtly seductive oak spice folds together rounded
melon and bright pear fruit on the nose and through the midpalate, finishing with
a zesty pop of acidity that keeps the flavor pulsing, and a specific chamomile aroma
note gets the glass back under your nose for another round. A mind bender worthy
of extended cellaring. 13.5% alcohol, barrel fermented, 18% new oak — all French,
no (that's right, NO) malolactic fermentation, pH 3.44, TA 7.2."
